Confirm attendance and collect payment upfront for your weekly tennis, run club, pickleball, or social session — no app required.
You're planning the next session. A few people confirm early. Some say they'll let you know. Others never quite lock it in.
You plan the numbers, allocate the capacity, and prepare for the session around expected attendance. Then two people pull out late. The spot stays empty. The revenue is lost.
You're left carrying both attendance risk and payment risk — every single week.
Payya helps you confirm attendance earlier, reduce admin, and collect payment upfront before the session begins.
When someone confirms, they pay. Their spot is locked in. No more soft RSVPs, no more chasing, no more planning around people who might not show.
Name your session, set the price, pick your group. Done.
Your group receives a personal payment link. No app required — they confirm and pay in a few taps.
See exactly who has paid and who has not. Plan your session with confidence.
The people who pay are the people who are coming. Plan courts, numbers, and capacity around real commitments.
No more collecting cash at the door or chasing transfers afterwards. Payments go directly to your bank account.
When people pay upfront, they show up. Commitment happens earlier in the process.
No spreadsheets, no DMs, no follow-ups. Payya tracks who has paid and who has not.
Your attendees confirm and pay with one link. No downloads, no sign-ups, no friction.
Send a payment request to your group in seconds. Name it, set the price, pick your people, send. Everyone receives a link, pays in a few taps, and you know who is confirmed.

Ticketing platforms are built for large public events. Payya is built for recurring sessions with a group you already know.

|---|---|---|---|
| When payment happens | At the session or after | At booking, but built for one-off events | At confirmation — before the session starts |

| Recurring support | Manual every time | Often clunky or unsupported for weekly use | Built for weekly and recurring sessions |
| Revenue predictability | None until people arrive | Per-event | Weekly revenue, locked in before the session |
